Inspired By...with Juliet & Jen: Juliet Sherriff

Today for our Inspired By... series, Juliet and I are taking inspiration from each other! I was excited to do this one because Juliet has such a beautiful clean and layered style and also because I was eager to see how she interpreted my style. I don't even know what my style is. If any of you have a good way of describing it, leave a comment below!

Anyway, here are some of Juliet's layouts:




Over the bit of time that I've known Juliet, I have noticed a few things about her style.

  • She always starts with a white cardstock base and mounts it on another color of cardstock.
  • She uses lots of tight layers around her photos and leaves a lot of white space.
  • She often has the embellishments and/or mist in a diagonal on the layout.
With that in mind, I created this layout:


I feel like I embodied her style well, but still stuck to what I love! Here are some details:





If you want to see how this layout came together, check out the process video on my YouTube channel, or watch it below.



I've linked all available products below and don't forget to check out Juliet's interpretation of my style as well!

Inspired By...with Juliet & Jen: Irit Landgraf

Do you ever create a layout that you aren't sure about in the beginning but it all comes together in the end? That is how this one worked out for me. I was so worried it was going to be hideous and that my inspiration (Irit Landgraf) would be horrified when she watched the video.

Luckily, I love the way it turned out in the end.


I played around with some mixed media on scraps of watercolor paper. I used mists, watercolors, distress paint, gesso, heavy gel medium and modeling paste with some stencils. Honestly, I was worried about the page after that. Watch the video. You'll understand why. Haha!


I used a floral die to cut shapes out of the mixed media bits and it created magic! Here are some close up shots. 


I just love the way the crazy/messy papers come together when they are die cut. Beautiful!


I embellished with some chipboard stickers from My Mind's Eye and it really didn't need much else.

Thanks for stopping by and leave me a comment if you have any questions!
